A member asked:
Can anyone develop bloodclots in legs during pregnancy even though no history of blood disorders and is healthy?

Yes: Pregnancy by itself is a risk factor for blood clot especially in the late part of pregnancy and the several weeks after delivery. In general, any pregnant woman is at risk but the risk is different depending on inherited risk factors, acquired factors and lifestyle (ie smoking).

Yes you can: Yes you can. Pregnancy can put you at risk to have a blood clot- especially if you have other predisposition i.e. Genetic abnormality /other conditions.
